Frequently asked questions

What are set up and tear down times?

Vendors are allowed to begin setting up at 9:45 am. We ask that you refrain from tearing down your booth space until the end of the event at 4 pm.

When will we see the map?

We will be putting together the map and sending it out the week before the event. Please look for that email.

Where should I park for the event?

Vendors will be issued one (1) vendor vehicle pass per booth registration. This pass allows your vehicle entrance into Bluestem prior to 10:30 am to set up. We will then have designated unloading zones for your supplies and will direct you to park in the grassy overflow lots.

What if I need additional vehicle passes?

Each vendor will receive one (1) vehicle pass as part of the booth registration. However, additional vehicle passes can be purchased as add-ons.

Can I drive on the lawn?

For the safety of our attendees and other vendors, we ask that you not drive to your booth space. However, if you have mobility concerns or need special accommodation, please speak to the Pride in the Park coordinator PRIOR to the event. The venue does not permit driving on the lawn.

Where will bathroom facilities be located?

We will have multiple porta-potties available to vendors and attendees. The buildings will not be open during our event.

Am I allowed to sell products/merchandise at my booth?

Yes! We welcome all types of vendors at Pride in the Park. However you DO need to make sure you pay Minnesota sales tax. We will also require all vendors with sales to complete a ST19 form. You can find the appropriate information here: https://www.revenue.state.mn.us/sales-and-use-tax.

I would like to sell food items, is that allowed?

We have a dedicated food vendor area and registration. If you would like more information about being a food vendor at Pride in the Park, please reach out to prideinthepark@fmpride.com

Do you have restrictions on the kind of soda or water we can sell?

Yes, Bluestem Center for the Arts has an exclusive contract with Coca Cola and no other soda or water can be sold at the venue. All soda and water products must be purchased through Bluestem.

Is there power in the park to be used if needed at our booth?

Unfortunately not. If you need any sort of power at your booth, you will need to provide your own generator.

Can I bring a tent? What size?

Your booth space will be 10ft x10ft and you can bring a tent that will fit within that space. Pride in the Park will provide one (1) 6 ft table per booth space.

Can I use ground stakes?

No, unfortunately there are important power lines that run underneath the lawn to the amphitheater. The space where we are setting up has not been located, and for your safety, you are not allowed to stake anything in the ground.

Can I swap locations or move my table to a different area?

Vendor locations have been determined based on how you categorized your organization during registration. This cannot be changed. Attendees have been provided with a map that notes these areas and what booths will be located within them.

Do I need to check in with someone prior to set up?

You are not required to check in. However, if you have any questions or concerns, you can look for a staff member wearing your zone’s colors. A volunteer or organizer will visit your space during the event.

How can I update, change, or cancel my registration?

Email us and we’d be happy to see how we can accommodate your request – prideinthepark@fmpride.com

What am I responsible for at the end of the event?

When you are packed up, please collapse your table and place it along the path for easy pick up. Also make sure that your area is clear of any trash during your tear down process, and take it to a garbage receptacle on site.

Where do I go if I have questions before or during the event?

The FM Pride Information Booth will be the first table at the entrance to the park. Our volunteers or an event organizer will be there to assist you.
